“…Lax parenting has been shown to predict sleep problems such as shorter nighttime and 24-hr sleep durations in 3-year-old children (Hall, Zubrick, Silburn, Parsons, & Kurinczuk, 2007;Staples, Bates, & Petersen, 2015). Greater parental overreactivity has also been suggested to delay sleep onset, as it may increase child arousal (Newton, Honaker, & Reid, 2020). However, parenting style may impact children differently, depending on temperament (Reid, Hong, & Wade, 2009).…”

Unhealthy dietary choices are associated with poor sleep in children through adults. Yet, how diet and sleep are related in early childhood, when diet is reliant on parent choices around food availability, is unknown. The authors aimed to explore how frequency of fruit, vegetable, fast food, and soda consumption are associated with preschool children's sleep quality. They also considered how parenting factors may impact the relationship between children's sleep and diet. Actigraphy data were collected from 383 children 33-70 months old. Caregivers reported on child food and beverage frequency, demographics, and health items. Parenting strategies were assessed using the Parenting Scale. Multiple linear regression was used to examine associations between sleep and dietary measures with socioeconomic status, race-ethnicity, physical activity, and body mass index as covariates. Shorter nap duration was associated with more frequent consumption of fruits and vegetables (B ¼ -3.6, p ¼ .03). Shorter nighttime and 24-hr sleep durations were associated with more frequent consumption of fast food (B ¼ -6.5, p ¼ .01; B ¼ -5.8, p ¼ .01). Shorter nighttime sleep and later sleep onset were associated with more frequent soda consumption (B ¼ -9.2, p ¼ .01; B ¼ 0.23, p ¼ .001). Use of ineffective parenting strategies was negatively associated with fruit and vegetable consumption (r ¼ -.29, p ¼ .01) and positively associated with soda consumption (r ¼ .25, p ¼ .02) but was unrelated to sleep measures. Thus, ineffective parenting strategies may underlie child access to unhealthy foods, which, in turn, contributes to poor sleep. Encouraging healthier dietary habits and educating caregivers on how to reinforce such practices may lead to better sleep outcomes in early childhood.

“…In addition, we explored potentially modifiable factors with a positive impact (i.e., siblings, pets, childcare, mindfulness). These factors were selected based on previous investigations of concepts alleviating the negative determinants of children's sleep, such as caregiver's stress (Newton et al., 2020; Smyth et al., 2020).…”

“…Crucially, it is unknown whether protective factors exist that mitigate negative consequences. Previous work has shown that factors such as family income and parental education positively affect sleep behaviour during childhood (Newton et al., 2020). Unfortunately, such factors are largely unmodifiable and thus cannot provide immediate solutions to support healthy sleep of young children in challenging circumstances.…”

Pandemics and subsequent disease-confinement responses can cause families and children to experience stressful and traumatic conditions (Sprang & Silman, 2013). Masten and Obradovic state "families often infect each other before any individual is diagnosed, they also infect each other with fear'' (Masten & Obradovic, 2008).Because confinement is abrupt and causes constraints in a multitude of ways, protecting core health needs is crucial. In response to confinement, there is a growing need for support strategies and recommendations tailored to children's health.Good sleep is essential to children's health as it fosters neuronal functioning, cognitive performance, memory processes and decision making (Ednick et al., 2009). However, poor sleep

“…For example, in the Childhood Adenotonsillectomy Trial trial, family income was linked to significantly increased OSA severity (apnea/ hypopnea index [AHI]) in univariate analyses, but this association was no longer significant after adjusting for African American race and environmental tobacco smoke exposure. 61 64 parental health literacy, 65 parenting practices, 66 and parental mood, 67 have also been associated with pediatric sleep health. In addition, there are salient factors at the child level that warrant further study in the context of pediatric sleep disparities, including child temperament and mental health comorbidities, 67 immigrant/refugee status and detention history, 68 and experiences of discrimination.…”

Disparities in sleep health are important but under-recognized contributors to health disparities. Understanding the factors contributing to sleep heath disparities and developing effective interventions are critical to improving all aspects of heath. Sleep heath disparities are impacted by socio-economic status, racism, discrimination, neighborhood segregation, geography, social patterns and access to healthcare as well as by cultural beliefs necessitating a cultural appropriateness component in any intervention devised for reducing sleep health disparities. Pediatric sleep disparities require innovative and urgent intervention to establish a foundation of lifelong healthy sleep. Tapping the vast potential of technology in improving sleep health access may be an underutilized tool to reduce sleep heath disparities. Identifying, implementing, replicating and disseminating successful interventions to address sleep disparities have the potential to reduce overall disparities in health and quality of life.
